Beanbag Monster

Sorry the pictures are all sideways... I can't seem to make them flip! 

Anyways... Awhile back I made beanbags for the boys out of a bunch of scrap fabrics. These are great beanbags... kind of pyramid shaped, good for throwing. We kept waiting to get a big enough box to make a monster to throw our beanbags at. I had found a few on pinterest I liked (Can you tell I use that site a lot?) and the boys both loved the open mouthed monster. The boys helped design and paint this guy.

After about 2 days of using it for its proper purpose they discovered it was also good for climbing...




 For the record, the monster was also used as a chair by Jacob to watch an entire movie. And then they had a BLAST destroying it. Monster is now in the recycling.

I was going to be annoyed and then I thought- painting, throwing, climbing, resting, and breaking... all before recycling. That's alot of activities for one box that before I had kids would have just been recycled. Good times.
